inhaling smoke = kill more brain cells




You're ignorant if you think it's as simple as that.

In addition - the title of this thread is "weed kills brain cells" - assuming your assertion is true - what if it's only eaten or vaporized? How would that equate to "weed kills braincells."

It's a completely unscientific blanket statement. In a word: wrong.

How about "Smoking weed may increase neuron death"
I could go with that.

Having brain cells kills brain cells.

Being that they exist, they have to die at some point.

Key is, don't make them in the first place..

yes about brain cells i agree with the major concensus, however you are damaging your lungs by smoke.

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity. ~ Albert Einstein

a lot of things kill brain cells...I do admit that weed severely scrambles my memory...but a lot of drugs do that.

"If we could sniff or swallow something that would, for five or six hours each day, abolish our solitude as individuals, atone us with our fellows in a glowing exaltation of affection and make life in all its aspects seem not only worth living, but divinely beautiful and significant, and if this heavenly, world-transfiguring drug were of such a kind that we could wake up next morning with a clear head and an undamaged constitution - then, it seems to me, all our problems (and not merely the one small problem of discovering a novel pleasure) would be wholly solved and earth would become paradise." - Aldous Huxley

Well fuck i'm sorry I didn't explain it well enough to you, however you did infer what I implied in the first place.

BTW the title of the thread isn't whether or not weed kills extremem amounts of braincells, its the fact that it does. But yes, i'm pretty sure you damage yourself as much if you eat it.

I know there are downsides to weed but theres downsides to a lot of other things as well which is where a lot of people forget to mention such as the classic "alcohol vs weed" n' how some find one acceptable but not the later.

Last I heard, in order for brain cells to start dying, you have be passed out for, like, 7 minutes :what:




i'm pretty sure that 7 minutes passed out with no oxygen would cause permanent brain damage for most people

i do think this topic is bullshit though
I might be wrong but I think drinking alcohol kills more brain cells than smoking pot

You seem to be overly simpling life and the human body.

Cannabis contains some carcinogens, but that doesn't mean it causes cancer. Coffee and many things you eat daily contain plenty of carcinogens. Neither weed nor coffee cause cancer, and pot has been shown to be beneficial in regards to stunting tumor growth - that is still being debated.

According to your logic, people who deep sea dive or have sleep apnea must be dumb as fuck.

Oh wait, you're probably holding your breath while reading this! :bigjoint:

Brain cells die all the time. inhaling smoke = kill more brain cells. Brain cells do come back though.


you're a goddamn fool if you don't believe that.




That's ironic... So smoking cigarettes would kill extremely more brain cells since you inhale more smoke? Everything can kill brain cells, but weed itself does NOT kill brain cells.. you have to be a god damn fool to believe that. You can vaporize, or make edibles with weed if you didn't know.

I've been told that smoking kills braincells by depriving the brain of oxygen, but I really don't buy that. If that were true, professional swimmers would suffer more brain damage.

That, and usually when you smoke pot, you inhale a sufficient amount of oxygen along with the smoke: One deep breath of air mixed with smoke equals the same amount of air (if not, MORE) you'd take in from a normal breath.

In regards to braincell homicide, I share the belief of an old girlfriend whom described to me the idea of survival of the fittest amongst the braincell population. The slower, weaker and dumber braincells are the first to go, making your brain a more efficient machine. Beat that logic. Justify my drug.

Alcohol is so much worse in terms of killing brain cells, there's no arguing that. I'm sure you people saying weed kills braincells have had a drink before.
